Melacare Cream 25gm

Melacare Cream is used for managing the following skin conditions:

• Melasma: Dark spots on the skin, especially on the face.
• Chloasma: Patchy brown or darkened skin, often caused by hormonal changes during pregnancy.
• Freckles: Small brown spots on the skin, usually caused by sun exposure.
• Senile Lentigines: Age spots or liver spots, which are flat, tan, or brown areas of increased pigmentation.
• Skin renewal: With tretinoin as an active ingredient, Melacare Cream helps improve skin renewal. It aids in managing melasma by helping the skin renew itself more quickly.
• Pregnancy-related dark patches: Women experiencing dark patches caused by factors like pregnancy can find relief with Melacare Cream.
• Skin redness, swelling, and itching: Melacare Cream contains mometasone, a steroid that can help manage these symptoms by blocking certain chemical messengers in the skin.

The following directions for using Melacare cream are based on the instructions given on the product label. 

• Before using the cream, wash your hands properly.
• Clean and dry the affected area.
• Gently spread a light layer of the cream over the designated area, covering the entire specified area.
• Gently rub the cream onto the skin until completely absorbed.
• Please wash your hands after applying it unless your hands are in the affected area.

The route of administration for Melacare cream is topical, which means it is applied directly on the skin.

• Melacare cream contains hydroquinone, tretinoin, and mometasone furoate, which work together to treat melasma.
• Hydroquinone is a depigmentation agent. It stops the production of melanin, the pigment that gives colour to our skin. This reversible lightening effect helps reduce dark spots and uneven skin tone.
• Tretinoin is a variety of vitamin A that works as a substance to help remove dead skin cells. When applied topically, it helps increase cell turnover and promotes the shedding of the outer layer of the skin. Doing so helps the other active ingredients penetrate the skin better and enhances the overall effectiveness of the cream. 
• Mometasone furoate is a corticosteroid that has anti-inflammatory properties. It helps reduce redness, inflammation, and itching in the skin.
• Together, these three ingredients in Melacare cream target different steps in producing melanin, the pigment responsible for dark spots. They interfere with the melanin synthesis pathway, affect melanin formation and degradation, and eventually cause the melanocytes (cells producing melanin) to die. This leads to a lightning effect, where the hyperpigmented areas fade faster than the surrounding normal skin.

• Store Melacare cream at room temperature (15-25ºC).
• Please protect it from light and moisture.
• Keep Melacare cream away from children.
• Do not use this cream after the expiry date has passed.

• While using Melacare cream 25 gm, it is advisable to avoid sun exposure as it can increase skin sensitivity to sunlight and lead to sunburn. To safeguard your skin, wear protective clothing and utilise sunscreen when going outdoors.
• Regular exercise can enhance your mood and self-esteem, although it does not directly clear spots. After completing your exercise session, taking a shower right away is recommended.
• Protect your face from sun exposure by wearing a wide-brimmed hat.
• Refrain from using skin products that may irritate, such as harsh soaps, skin cleansers, shampoos, hair removers or waxes, hair colours or permanent chemicals, and skin products containing astringents, lime, spices, or alcohol.
